From Sue Bufton:

This is for a site called “Fakebook” which allows students to create fake profile pages for study purposes. For example students could create a fake profile page for a book character they are studying instead of doing a traditional character study, or could create a profile of a famous/historical figure (I’m thinking famous gifted person perhaps as part of the affective curriculum??). It looks like a fun and inviting way for students to present their work. I haven’t used it but have had a quick look and thought it worth passing on. It could even be used as part of a talent project??
